SCHEDULE 13D

Explanatory Note: This Amendment No. 2 (this Amendment) amends and supplements that certain beneficial ownership report on Schedule 13D filed with the Commission on March 8, 2022 (the Schedule 13D), as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on April 20, 2022, by the Reporting Persons identified therein. Except where the context plainly requires otherwise, references to the Schedule 13D shall describe the previous filing as amended hereby. The Reporting Persons are filing this Amendment to amend certain information described in Item 4 through 7 to reflect the termination of the Stockholder group for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), effective December 14, 2022. Capitalized terms used herein and not defined shall have the meanings assigned in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is amended by appending the following information.

On December 14, 2022, the Reporting Persons and Heartland Financial USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a registered bank holding company (the Issuer), entered into an agreement (the Settlement Agreement) whereby, among other things, the Reporting Persons agreed to amend the Stockholder Agreement dated March 8, 2022 (the Stockholder Agreement), concurrently with the execution of the Settlement Agreement, to terminate substantially all of its provisions, including all provisions pertaining to voting, consultation, communication and designation of representatives, thereby dissolving the group for the purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, Lynn B. Fuller resigned from the Board of Directors of the Issuer, effective immediately.

The Settlement Agreement imposes certain standstill restrictions on the Reporting Persons until the date that is fifteen (15) days prior to the deadline for the submission of stockholder proposals for the 2024 annual meeting of the Issuers stockholders pursuant to the Issuers Amended and Restated Bylaws. Each Reporting Person also agreed to release the Issuer and each of its present and former affiliates, associates, employees, officers, directors, managers, principals and subsidiaries and any of their advisors or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, actions, suits, promises, damages, liabilities and judgments whatsoever, whether known or unknown, in law or equity, which such Reporting Person or its affiliate shall or may have for, upon or by reason of any matter, cause or thing against the Issuer or its subsidiaries pertaining to actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuer or its affiliates or its associates with respect to such Reporting Persons investment in the Issuer, the employment of such Reporting Person or its affiliates or associates with the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, or such Reporting Persons service on the board of directors of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, in each case prior to the date of the Settlement Agreement.

In addition, the Issuer agreed to reimburse the Reporting Persons for their reasonable, documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of legal and financial advisors to the Reporting Persons incurred in connection with the Reporting Persons involvement at the Issuer in their capacity as such through the date of the Settlement Agreement and agreed to release, subject to certain exceptions, each Reporting Person, and each of his, her or its present and former affiliates, associates, employees, officers, directors, managers, principals and subsidiaries and any of their advisors or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, actions, suits, promises, damages, liabilities and judgments whatsoever, whether known or unknown, in law or equity, which the Issuer shall or may have for, upon or by reason of any matter, cause or thing against any Reporting Person pertaining to actions taken or omitted to be taken by such Reporting Person or its affiliates or associates in connection with such Reporting Persons investment in the Issuer, the employment of such Reporting Person or its affiliates or associates with the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, or such Reporting Persons service on the board of directors of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries, in each case prior to the date of the Settlement Agreement.

A copy of the Settlement Agreement and the amendment to the Stockholder Agreement (the Amendment) are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.3 and 99.4, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing descriptions of the Settlement Agreement and the Amendment are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Settlement Agreement and the Amendment, respectively.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) and (b) As of the date hereof, the Reporting Persons hold, in the aggregate, approximately 2,858,309 shares or 6.73% of the outstanding common stock and combined voting power of the Issuers common stock, based on 42,444,820 issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Issuer as of November 4, 2022, as reported by the Issuer on its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2022, for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2022.

The aggregate number of shares and percentage of common stock outstanding beneficially owned by each Reporting Person and, for each Reporting Person, the number of shares of common stock as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to direct the disposition are set forth on Rows 7 through 11 and Row 13 of the cover pages of this Statement and are incorporated herein by reference and summarized in the following table.

Prior to the Amendment, as a result of the Stockholder Agreement, the Reporting Persons may have been deemed to possess shared voting power over, and therefore beneficially own for purposes of Rule 13d-3, up to an aggregate of 2,858,309 shares of common stock that are beneficially owned collectively by the parties to the Stockholder Agreement corresponding to each Reporting Person as set forth above in this Statement. All such shares that may have been deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons constitute approximately 6.73% of the issued and outstanding common stock as of November 4, 2022.

Neither the filing of this Statement nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is the beneficial owner of common stock referred to herein for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose. Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of all securities of the Issuer except to the extent of their several pecuniary interests therein. The filing of this statement does not constitute an admission that any Reporting Person is a member of a group for the purposes of Sections 13(d) of the Exchange Act.

The following table summarizes the beneficial ownership of the Issuers common stock by the Reporting Persons. For additional detail regarding sole voting and dispositive power, and shared voting and dispositive power of the shares beneficially owned by each Reporting Person listed below, see the cover pages to this Statement, which are incorporated into this Item 5 by reference.
